THE MISER

Your Problem

By I OmnistPublished 5 years ago 2 min read

I feel with my skin

I feel with my heart

I feel with my mind

I feel words are art

I think people seek misery for the simple fact to have something to talk about

I think people talk about being special, and different, to ignore the ignorance of their own lives.

I think the thought of love is over-rated and tolerance is a conversation that's left out

I think the ability to see others as you choose is what allows the weak to survive

I take in the notions of all those that think

And express myself with said qualities

Humilities poet and self proclaimed dink

That calls out the cowards and all those that tease

It's nothing personal. Because I couldn't care less

It's your problem not mine and three fingers point back

So go fuck yourself and succumb to duress

Try to convince me that white is not black

I think so I am, and therefore I am

All the dumb shit that some dude named Will said

I quoted it wrong and I don't give a shit

Write your own song then you simple dimwit

Go back to the first part of this stupid rhyme

If you've made it this far then you're possibly dying

Not quite like me though, not that you'd notice

Your news shows the emperors important focus

My time is over and I've come to a halt

Good luck now with this prisoner's Earth

Don't forget God turned a person to salt

And then he made Lot live in mountains and dirt

Blinded him too so he could be raped

By his daughters no less! to bear sons with some worth

This THIS! Is what humanity has brought to fruition

Not you, not me, this sort of biblicality

We put people in place that respect this indignation

And then…we worship religiously!

Down with humanity and the writable past

Down with the obligation to gold-gilded task

There are no more heroes nor marvels to save

There is only death after being a slave

Have I written enough yet to get this point across?

Are you subtly thinking this poets an arse?

Have you looked beyond meme and said "hey maybe

This wakko's like me when it comes to daydreaming"

Don't worry. Nobody listens. Lest we forget it's all about them

Didn't you notice? something recently happened about dollars and cents and rupees and gems

That's okay. The guy with the mask on was who you thought it was

You were right! Heres a compilation prize for sitting, guessing, and being a part of us.
